Abstract

Over the last 10 years the incidence of primary gastric lymphomas (PGL), and in particular those of MALT origin, has significantly increased. Recent works correlated this epidemiological observation to Helicobacter pylori (HP) infection. On the other hand, new evidence demonstrating that occupational exposure to pesticides and solvents has played an important role in the pathogenesis of non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL) has emerged from studies involving large series of patients.
